FINDINGS; APPROVALS
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista has previously reviewed, analyzed,
considered, and certified the Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for the EastLake
Greens Sectional Planning Area (SPA) Plan and EastLake Trails Pre-Zone and Annexation
(FSEIR 86-04; certified JOy 18, 1989) and Final Subsequent Environmental Impact Report for
the EastLake Trails/Greens Replanning Program (FSEIR 97-04; certified November 24, 1998).
IV. COMPLIANCE WITH CEQA
The Environmental Review Coordinator has determined that any impacts associated with
the proposed tentative subdivision map have been previously addressed by the Final
Supplemental Environmental Impact Report for the EastLake Greens Sectional Planning Area
(SPA) Plan and EastLake Trails Pre-Zone and Annexation (FSEIR 86-04) and Final Subsequent
Environmental Impact Report for the EastLake Trails/Greens Replanning Program (FSEIR
97-04). The Tentative Map is in substantial conformance with the project upon which the
analysis contained in FSEIR 86-04 and FSEIR 97-04 was based and, therefore, approval and
implementation of the Tentative Map does not change the basic conclusions of these EIR's.
V. INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT OF CITY COUNCIL
The City Council has exercised their independent review and judgment and concurs with
the Environmental Review Coordinators determination that the proposed project was adequately
covered in FSEIR 86-04 and FSEIR 97-04, and that said documents were prepared in accordance
with the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA
Guidelines and the Environmental Review Procedures of the City of Chula Vista.
Resolution 2003-141

TENTATIVE SUBDIVISION MAP FINDINGS
A. Pursuant to Government Code Section 66473.5 of the Subdivision Map Act, the
City Council finds that the Tentative Subdivision Map, as conditioned herein for EastLake Land
Swap Residential, Chula Vita Tract No. 03-04, is in conformance with the elements of the City's
General Plan, based on the following:
1. Land Use
The EastLake Land Swap Residential parcel provides for Medium-High
(11-18 du/ac). The proposed subdivision incorporates provides for four super lots
to be subsequently developed with multi-family projects. Thus, the project as
conditioned is in substantial compliance with the EastLake II GDP and SPA and
EastLake Greens Neighborhood SPA., and since the GDP and SPA are in
substantial conformance with the General Plan, the Tentative Map is also in
substantial conformance with the General Plan.
2. Circulation
All on-site and off-site public streets required to serve the subdivision will
be constructed or DIF fees paid by the developer in accordance with the EastLake
Greens Public Facilities Financing Plan.
The public streets within the Project will be sized as prescribed in the
circulation element of the General Plan and designed per City design standards
and/or requirements, or modifications accepted by the Director of Engineering.
The required and anticipated off-site improvements would be designed to handle
this Project and future projects in the area.
3. Housing
The Amended EastLake Comprehensive Affordable Housing Program has
been adopted and incorporated into the EastLake Greens Neighborhood SPA Plan
to ensure that a minimum of ten percent affordable housing is provided. A
condition of approval requires the Developer to enter into an agreement with the
City to ensure that the affordable housing units as prescribed in the affordable
Housing Program are constructed and delivered as prescribed in the above-
mentioned Affordable Housing Program. The EastLake subdivision also provides
a mix of housing types and lot sizes for single family, townhomes, and
condominiums at various densities for persons of various income levels. Parcel
Number 1 will be developed with an affordable housing consisting of 150 units.
4. Conservation
FSEIR 86-04 and FSEIR 97-04 address the goals and policies of the
Conservation Element of the General Plan and found the development of this site
to be consistent with these goals and policies.
5. Parks & Building Construction, Open Space
The Project is served by an existing 15-acre community park located just
north of the Eastlake High School, and will be constructing a future 11.8 acre
Resolution 2003-141
Page 4
neighborhood park (P-3) located east of the 200 foot utility corridor which runs
parallel adjacent to the east side of the Project. The Developer has satisfied all
park dedication and development fee obligations through the adoption by the City
Council of the"Second Amended and Restated Development Agreement between
the City of Chula Vista and the EastLake Company, LLC for EastLake III (Trails,
Woods, Vistas, Business Center Expansion, Olympic Training Site and Land
Swap) doc No. 2001-0807936 dated November 1,200F
6. Seismic Safety
The proposed subdivision is in conformance with the goals and policies of
the Seismic Element of the General Plan for this site
7. Safety
The Fire Department and other emergency service agencies have reviewed
the proposed subdivision for conformance with City safety policies and have
determined that the proposal meets the City Threshold Standards for emergency
services.
8. Noise
Noise mitigation measures included in the FSEIR 86-04 and FSEIR 97-04
adequately address the noise policy of the General Plan. The project has been
conditioned to require that all dwelling units be designed to preclude interior
noise levels in excess of 45 dBA and exterior noise exposure over 60 dBA for all
outside habitable areas.
Scenic Highway
The project site is located adjacent to designated scenic highways
(Olympic Parkway). The project will be developed in compliance with Section 8
of the Land Use Element of the Chula Vista General Plan.
10. Bicycle Routes
Although no designated regional off-street bicycle routes are included as
components of the internal circulation network, bicyclists will be readily able to
share the internal streets with motor vehicles due to low traffic volume and
limited speeds allowed. Bicycle route segments to connect to regional systems
have been incorporated as prescribed by the Circulation Element of the General
Plan. On-street bike lanes are included on the adjacent arterial highways. The
bike lanes will be paved components of the street systems indicated.
11. Public Buildings
No public buildings am proposed on the project site. The project is
subject to RCT fees prior to issuance of building permits.
B. Pursuant to Section 66412.3 of the Subdivision Map Act, the Council certifies that
it has considered the effect of this proposal on the housing needs of the region and has balanced
Resolution 2003-141
Page 5
those needs against the public service needs of the residents of the City and the available fiscal
and environmental resources.
C. The configuration, orientation and topography of the site partially allows for the
optimum setting of lots for passive or natural heating and cooling opportunities as required by
Government Code Section 66473.1.
D. The site is physically suited for residential development and the proposal
conforms to all standards established by the City for such project.
E. The conditions herein imposed on the grant of permit or other entitlement herein
contained is approximately proportional both in nature and extend to the impact created by the
proposed development.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council does hereby approve the Project
subject to the general and special conditions set forth below.
